I am just as nitpicky as anybody else when it comes to characters I'm obsessed with. But I don't find people who mischaracterize them nearly as annoying as people who write condescending posts about others who mischaracterize them which seem more motivated by feeding their own superiority complex about Being The One Person to Understand Mr Blorbo rather than giving any constructive advice.

#like. listen we know theres a bit of a problem with media literacy at the moment #but is making teenagers feel stupid for the way they interpret a fictional guy REALLY that deep?#really?#disclaimer: when i say mischaracterize i mean like. simply not understanding certain personality traits and motivations. harmless stuff #not assumptions that are based in bigoted stereotypes #anyway. yes im sure you understand The Character better than anybody. i believe you #im sure we all have a superiority complex about The Character #but also i think we should maybe take a step back and listen to ourselves every once in a while #and wonder if we maybe sound a bit obnoxious
